Although Borders closed, there are smaller local bookstores around the island one of the most known being Libereria Tertulia in Rio Piedras. However, not many people know about them. I believe small bookstores should advertise themselves more in order for people to realize where they are and that they exist for that matter.
Also, although this is good for local economy I believe there is still need of a big bookstore with the cafe and all that jazz. So I plead to Barnes and Nobles to open in Puerto Rico. These big bookstores especially if located in Plaza Las Americas make people sit down and read. If not Barnes and Noble than a local, bigger bookstore should open.
With our high crime rates and low education standards, it is impertinent for books to be accessible to everyone.
Comment on what other measures could help the lack of bookstores in Puerto Rico.
